Nope I included Duke. Excluded Virginia because they were conference champs just like UK.
Oh, OK. So I guess the next thing we can look at is the strength of schedule for the conferences if you really want to continue this debate. First thing though is the ACC went 17-5 in the NCAA tournament, the SEC went 6-5 and that includes UofK going 4-1.
Now on we go.
The ACC had 6 teams in the top 25, 10 teams in the top 50 regarding strength of schedule, and the worse in the whole conference was Notre Dame at 94.
The SEC had 3 teams in the top 25, 9 teams in the top 50, but also had 4 teams worse than Notre Dame's 94 - The 4 teams worse than Notre Dame's 94 rating were LSU (97), Texas A&M (98), Vandy (118), and Miss State (125).
Oh, and UofK's Strength of Schedule was not one of the top 3 in the SEC. UofK's overall SOS was 45.
Ouch again.
